Thank you so much for your donation to the Hurricane Melissa Emergency Appeal. Already, Red Cross teams are working tirelessly to ensure that the people and families affected receive the help they urgently need.
Thanks to the kindness you have shown today, you have helped to ensure the people affected by this devastating hurricane are not alone – now and as they recover and rebuild stronger.
Thank you!
Hurricane Melissa – one of the strongest storms on record, and the most powerful to ever hit Jamaica – has caused devastating damage and severe impacts for tens of thousands of people. Red Cross teams are on the ground, working hard to meet the urgent needs of those most affected. But they can’t do it alone. You can help deliver life-saving humanitarian assistance to the people affected by this deadly hurricane today. Please don’t wait. Donate now.
In Jamaica, Haiti and across the Caribbean region, Hurricane Melissa has caused significant and life-threatening destruction. Torrential rainfall, flooding and landslides have forced thousands of families to leave their homes and seek emergency shelter. Lives have been lost, the impact is devastating, and the true extent of the disaster won’t be fully known for days or weeks to come. As the situation continues to unfold, the threat to human life remains critical. But you could make a life-saving difference today.
Your donation today will mean, together, with Red Cross teams on the ground, we can help ensure that those most affected are able to receive the help they need: emergency shelter, clean water and vital practical and emotional support.
And when communities begin the long road to recovery, your donation can help support them to rebuild what has been lost.
Funds raised by this appeal can also enable the deployment of Kiwi international delegates to work directly with Red Cross teams on the ground to deliver aid and support communities and families affected by this devastating disaster.
So please, donate today. Your generosity can ensure the people of Jamaica and other affected countries don’t face this disaster alone.
Finally, don’t forget that when you make a donation of over $5.00, you could claim 33.33% back from IRD!
